Confusion ....tester = QC ? or QA ? ...something else

Hmmmm.......

for some good time now, I've been seeing confusions in people regarding who is a tester ..... Some people percieve that tester is a quality control person ........some think they are quality assurance persons ........ the list is slightly more bigger, but these two are the main confusing roles ......

Why can't a tester be percieved as tester ? .....why cant he be percieved as someone who knows how to break the code ........ oh !! not another confusion ......... i am not talking about a hacker here but a tester ........

You may agree to differ in opinion but honestly that is what a tester does .......his job is to build scenarios, create plans, find testcases, generate testwares .......and test .........

White Box testing experts get in to delve into the structural aspect of the code and Black Box testing experts want to understand the acceptance levels of the software ....... with the client/ customer perspective.

Oh !! how did I forget to add ......a biggest misconception that failed developers become testers .....

Does the argument finish here ......... NO... wait to hear more on this blog !!
